What are you doing on November 5th?

What if the election is a 269-269 tie and has to be decided in January and Israel attacks Iran between the election and the voting on Captiol Hill before Inauguration of whomever they choose?

As a poll worker, I expect to spend the 5th sleeping. That's ONE long day your election workers put in...

Aww! I remember my tours of duty as a poll worker. I miss the in-person process, and can't wait to do it in the next election!

I guess it depends on how much confidence Israel has that Obama will continue to support them....do they feel like they have to have McCain in office so much that they do it prior to the election?

Your theory, however, is much more likely.

Of course there is always "Option-B". Iran strikes Israel first.

Top Iran officials recommend preemptive strike against Israel

Senior Tehran officials are recommending a preemptive strike against Israel to prevent an Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear reactors, a senior Islamic Republic official told foreign diplomats two weeks ago in London.

The official, Dr. Seyed G. Safavi, said recent threats by Israeli authorities strengthened this position, but that as of yet, a preemptive strike has not been integrated into Iranian policy.

Not going to happen. Obama has this wrapped up.

My official prediction (assuming no game changing October surprises come out)? Obama wins the popular by 6-8 pts and the electoral by 130-190.

I read that 8 is now 48-45 in favor.

Really? That's a shift back towards No, perhaps there's still hope.

Being that I don't live in CA, I have no idea how it's been tracking, but what I read seemed to suggest that support for it is gaining steam recently, as only a month ago it was 49-44 against.

It was against a month ago, but a poll a couple weeks ago, Oct. 6th, had it with a 5% lead in favor. So the fact that it's now at a 3% lead is a shift back in the other direction.
